Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 588 I Thought You Invited Me

Leanna mercilessly locked Aidan out after the kiss was over.

He curled his fingers as he knocked on the door with his knuckles. "Be reasonable. Can't you let me in?"

Leanna's muffled yell rang out, "Is this the first time you've seen me acting so unreasonably?"

Aidan gently touched his lips that were bitten by Leanna; the smile on the corner of his mouth deepened. Then, he didn't persist as he returned to the couch and lay down while pillowing his head on his arm.

Meanwhile, in the bedroom, Leanna was in no mood to take a shower after that altercation. Thus, she threw herself into the bed.

At this moment, perhaps due to the effect of the medicine gradually kicking in, she started to feel her eyelids drooping down. She even started yawning after a while.

So, she rolled herself into the covers, closed her eyes, and fell asleep.

The sound of thunder outside the window caused her to jerk awake in the middle of the night.

Still, she was somewhat groggy as she slowly sat up. As she listened to the sound of rumbling thunder and pattering rain outside, as well as the cold gust flapping through the curtains and into the room from time to time, she remembered the blanket she gave Aidan. That blanket was pretty thin. What if his cold gets worse… In the end, it will still be me who suffers.

When Leanna thought of the possibility of him getting yet another fever, she looked for another blanket from the closet and yanked it out.

Then, she gently opened the door and was surprised to see that Aidan was still working when she stumbled out.

She placed the thicker blanket by his side and teased, "Did you finally discover your conscience after just resting at home for two days?"

Aidan closed the laptop with a quiet snap. "I'm just wisely utilizing my time. After all, I will be wasting my time if I keep tossing around, forcing myself to shut my eyes when I clearly have trouble sleeping."

Leanna turned around, took a thermometer, and checked his body temperature. His body temperature is normal, so that means his fever has subsided.

"Okay. You should get some rest. Your condition should be fine tomorrow," she urged.

Alas, Aidan begged to differ, "I don't think so."

Leanna kept the thermometer aside and questioned, "What's the matter? Are you planning to sleep before your hair dries again?"

"That's because you refused to lend me a hair dryer when I wanted to borrow one from you."

"Are you implying that it was me who caused you to be sick?"

"I never said that." Aidan looked out the window and changed the topic. "It's pretty cold."

"I brought you a blanket."

"But I want to lay down on my bed and sleep in my bedroom," he whined.
